Things that Eric A. Meyer, CSS expert, writes about on his personal Web site; it's largely Web standards and Web technology, but also various bits of culture, politics, personal observations, and other miscellaneous stuffThu, 30 Jul 2015 15:08:52 +0000hourly1http://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.4-RC1By: Jeffhttp://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/08/10/workshopping-in-chicago/#comment-6204

Somehow my supervisor got sent an email from the event sponsor, she walks into my office and says “Would you be intrested in going this?” to which I replied “I can be packed in ready in an hour and half, when’s my flight?” LOL Look forward to seeing you there Eric…

Eric, any new books coming out by the way? Just curious if I should add it o my wishlist or not…

Oregon isn’t too close to Chicago. :) Have you considered making the Survival Kit available to your fans elsewhere? I’d gladly purchase that as a way of supporting your continued educational efforts …

The CSS Definitive Guide I keep around for getting through the complicated stuff.

Since I live in Peoria, IL and an overnight would be necessary — especially if I stay for the social — I will need to check out accomidations before I can commit.

Wed, 10 Aug 2005 22:21:30 +0000http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/08/09/workshopping-in-chicago/#comment-6102But where in Chicago is it being held at? The listing just says Chicago and unfortunately that’s a HUGE city so a few more specifics woul slam.

Eric, if you promise to do the neighborhood tour thing I can promise you a home-cooked meal and a place to stay for the night to save on the ol’ corporate expense account….

Will: I think maybe you’re on to something there. If only I were ten years younger and didn’t have a family!

Wed, 10 Aug 2005 18:29:21 +0000http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/08/09/workshopping-in-chicago/#comment-6100I think it would be a good idea to have a ‘neighborhood tour’. Instead of having a high-profile, high-dollar workshop in a major city, a bunch of you smart people can load up in a van and tour the smaller cities, working for beer and couches to sleep on.

I have about 15 chairs I can set up in my living room and there are a few handfuls of people in this small city that would love to come, but would never be able to make it to somewhere like Chicago or London.
